choose only one example and discuss why it is hard to classify according to taxonomy nomenclature 
then comment on three of your peers contributions ]]> 2020-10-15 20:38:29 UTC https://padlet.com/samah_abdallah/lphjyc6801yz/wish/833943935 Bats danaamr72 https://padlet.com/samah_abdallah/lphjyc6801yz/wish/840782000 Bats (Corynorhinus townsendii) are hard to classify since they have qualities of being a mammal since they are warm blooded and have fur, they also feed their babies milk. However, they have wings that they use to fly. They are still in the mammalia class.

The information obtained through technological tests such as  electron microscopes, growth studies, chemical testing at the moment are incomplete, so the exact class of lichens hasn't been determined yet.

This makes it hard to tell if they are reptiles or birds. However they are classifies as aves in class (which includes all birds)  order of Sphenisciformes and family  of Spheniscidae.
